Maybe my memory has failed me, but I remember a tweet from the NWS that said July averaged more thunderstorms than any other month, though I was looking at the severe climatology and you appear correct. June has more tornadoes and hail reports, at least. I can't find historical data on severe watches/warnings or t-storms, overall. Guess I'm a doofus lol.

My thought on this would be that severe wind is much more common overall than severe hail or tornadoes, so it would stand to reason that the month with the most severe wind gusts would be the month with the most severe overall, and I could see that being July.

GFS is advertising the mid/upper 90s heat for next weekend the last few runs. Then again, this weekend is going to be a bust compared to what was forecast/modeled as recently as midweek. Going to be a lot of disgruntled casuals if they didn’t check the weather for a couple days and assumed this weekend would be summery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 HRRR and NAM3k much warmer than the global models tomorrow. Wonder if they will score a coup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first I thought maybe the HRRR badly underestimated cloud cover on those runs where it got us to 91 but that doesn’t seem to have been the case. Didn’t dive into the details of how it got us to 91 when it had us under cloud cover all day. That said, 80 if we’re lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimB Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Seems we have a solid shot at 90 on Wednesday and maybe a chance somewhere around Friday or the weekend, but this pattern looks warm and humid and perhaps rainy at times, but not a massive heat wave.

Ahoff Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 Looking at the radar, am I the only one skeptical that this rain is done by 2pm? Looks like that long trail of rain is aimed right at us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Sunday would be my pick day to hit the mark. Just the Pittsburgh oddity rearing up again. Everywhere, literally everywhere around is 90s+ and we struggle to get the upper 80s.

Haven’t seen any outages or many trees even so did okay least around me. after last year’s microburst that I obliterated the area around wildwood CC and not to mention a tornado literally going over my head in October this all seems tame lol.

Does anyone think the storms that rolled through yesterday was a Derecho? I was up at my church's festival trying to set up for the night and it was absolutely wild. Tents flying and things bending everywhere. A little scary for a period. Worst storm I've seen in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst storm I've seen in a long time. Definitely an MCS that produced damage over a pretty significant distance. These are the SPC storm reports for yesterday, which I believe are mostly attributed to two separate MCS that tracked across different regions. I could see where that word would be used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
